Key: Eb

-3*   4    -5*  7 -7*  8    8
Gray skies are gon-na clear up,
8  -7* 7* -6 -5  4
Put on a hap-py face;
-3*    4  -5*   7    -7*   8   8
Brush off the clouds and cheer up,
8  -7* 7* -6 -5  5*
Put on a hap-py face.
5    -5*  7*   8   8  -8  7  -7*  8 -7*
Take off the gloom-y mask of trag-e-dy,
-7    7*  -7*   7
It's not your style;
5       -5* 7*   8    8    -8   7  -7*
You'll look so good that you'll be glad
8  -7* -7 -6  7*  -7*
Ya' de-ci-ded to smile!

-3*   4 -5*  7   -7*  8    8
Pick out a pleas-ant out-look,
8     -7*  7*  -6 -5   4
Stick out that no-ble chin;
-3*   4   -5*   7  -7*   8      8
Wipe off that "full of doubt" look,
8   -7* 7* -6 -5   5*
Slap on a hap-py grin!
-5*   8     8   -7*  -9*-7* 7* -7*  7
And spread sun-shine all o-ver the place,
8    -9  8  7 -7* 7   -5*
Just put on a hap-py face!

REPEAT
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
